Maybe he is not the one participating but his alt account or he just open this discussion for the sake of creating discussion about recent good bounty campaign, he is a hero member he knows that he cannot join in any signature campaign with a lot of negative tag in his account, even in a social media account he cannot participate, majority of the campaign do not accept account with a lot of negative tag.
For now what we sure of is that the recommendation he is looking for is for him, you are only trying to be logical about what other reason he has, but even before I read suggestions I already felt people would suggest mainly the bounty they are under-going, so I don't think that question from the op is one to be asked because what criteria is he looking for a the bounty -it was never said- I can only suggest they see more bounties directly.
